Automotive manufacturers have been making special and limited-edition models since the beginning of mass production. Sometimes, these deluxe models exceed expectations and stick around longer than anticipated. The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392, for example, has taken the Rolling Stones’ advice about retirement, though we’re assured the 2025 final edition really is the end of the […]
When an automaker includes the word “ultimate” in a vehicle’s name, they’re setting the bar high. Such is the case with the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate. As the highest trim of this long-running pickup truck, the Denali Ultimate aims to take the Sierra 1500 Denali that has been available for many years and […]
The fifth-generation GMC Yukon has earned plenty of praise since it first hit the market in 2021. Lauded for its spacious design, luxurious interior, and off-road ability, the Yukon has quickly become a favorite amongst drivers and critics alike. It’s easy to understand the SUV’s wide appeal, but there has always been one notable shortcoming […]
Ford’s largest SUV is being treated to a new off-road option as the Tremor trim makes its way to the 2025 Expedition. Already one of the most compelling options in the full-size segment, the three-row Expedition now makes a bid for adventure-loving families with a fresh trim that includes a full suite of off-road equipment. […]
The Toyota Tacoma is famous for having many trims and packages to choose from. The current lineup includes eight standalone trims, many of which are geared toward off-roaders or branded with the TRD (Toyota Racing Development) moniker. A trim that shares both traits is the TRD PreRunner, which was introduced as part of the Tacoma’s […]
Chevy has built its reputation as a brand by offering a series of vehicles that are built to last, providing drivers with an affordable way to get the task done. This is especially true of Chevy’s lineup of pickup trucks. For over 100 years, Chevy has built trucks that are known for their exceptional capability […]
When it comes to off-roaders, you don’t typically think of full-size SUVs. For me, I tend to envision midsize SUVs like the Wrangler and trucks like the Colorado ZR2 kicking up dust on the trails, not the family-friendly Armada. Well, for its latest year on the scene, the full-size Armada can be armed with adventuring […]
When I traded my two-door Wrangler with its beefy all-terrains for a more practical, family-friendly SUV, I also paused my passion for venturing off the pavement. My options were limited at the time because I never thought to expand my search and shop for alternatives like a Chevy Tahoe for sale. Today, one look at […]
If there is one thing the internet loves to do, it’s to speculate on things that don’t exist or haven’t happened yet. In the automotive world, that means speculating about models that aren’t yet available on the market…but definitely should be. One such model is the Honda CR-V TrailSport. Though a CR-V TrailSport is not […]
If you’re looking for a rugged truck ready to kick the pavement to the curb, there’s never been a better time to shop. While getting trucks ready for treacherous off-road trails used to require costly custom jobs, you can now find a variety of options at your local Ford dealer that are ready to conquer […]
Given the Chevy Silverado 1500’s reputation as one of the most rugged, hard-working trucks on the market, it’s little surprise to learn that the full-size pickup is no stranger to the world of motorsports. From the banked corners of a NASCAR speedway to the sun-baked hardpan of the Nevada desert, the Silverado 1500 knows a […]
When Kawasaki announced in 2016 that it was discontinuing the Z800, it didn’t make a lot of waves. Although the successor to the Z750 had received good reviews for its versatile performance and comfort, it was just four years old and already outshined by other mid-level bikes like the Triumph Street Triple R. As it […]
Since 2010, Ford’s F-150 Raptor has been the apex predator in the world of off-road pickups. From its high-output twin-turbo V6 (or the 720-horsepower supercharged V8 found in the high-performance Raptor R) to the upgraded suspension with FOX internal bypass dampers and rear coil springs, there’s no mistaking the Raptor for any other F-150 model. […]
The GMC Acadia’s AT4 trim turns the already-capable SUV into a competent off-road contender. While it might not be able to achieve some of the rock-crawling, dune-bashing feats of off-road strength one might experience behind the wheel of a dedicated body-on-frame adventure rig, it’s still a standout in the crossover class. The advantages of the […]
With the Civic Si, Honda has taken one of the world’s most popular models and infused it with the sort of sportiness that can turn every drive into an edge-of-your-seat experience. It might not be able to reach some of the high-speed heights of the sportiest Civic variant you will find at your Honda dealer, […]
Performance enthusiasts will agree that it takes a lot to really impress them, especially when it comes to off-road-ready vehicles. With legends like Jeep and Ford out there, it’s difficult for other automakers to really make a statement in this arena, but over the years, Toyota has come to occupy one of these top spots. […]
If you’re in the market for your next truck, your top priorities are probably going to be practical. You likely want a model that’s dependable, capable, within your price range…all that good stuff. But let’s face it: a good name doesn’t hurt. While it’s not enough to keep an unimpressive truck afloat (remember the Chevrolet […]
The SUV is easily the most popular of all vehicles on the marketplace; competition is fierce among the various brands, especially regarding the subcompact and crossover models, which appear to be increasing yearly. For Chevy, one of the most respected brands on the marketplace, this is something they take very seriously, and as such, the […]
When you’re shopping for a Ford F-150 these days, you have seemingly countless options available. From high-value options like the XL, STX, and XLT to premium trims like the Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum to off-road models like the Tremor, Raptor, and Raptor R, there is an F-150 model for everyone. But it wasn’t always […]
In an era when the label “SUV” often denotes an all-too-civilized family hauler reminiscent of a previous generation’s station wagons, the Dodge Durango stands out as a robust exception. It combines the brawn of an old-school SUV with the performance and attitude of a muscle car. If you’re planning to shop at a Dodge dealer […]
